Some strong reaction to what some say were pretty harsh words from evangelical pastor Franklin Graham on NewsRadio KDKA yesterday about Disney and the LGBTQ community.

Reverend Graham told Larry and Kevin that Disney flaunts sin and backs Florida Governor Ron DiSantis in their battle over a new law in the state that some people have billed as "Don't Say Gay" law.


Ross Murray, an ordained deacon and Vice-President of the GLAAD Media Institute, talked about how law impacts the LBGTQ community.

"It mirrors so closely a law that was passed in Russia in 2013 that also was censorship and did not allow speaking about LGBTQ people in any positive light."

Murray calls the bill dangerous, saying it promotes censorship and tries to silence and shame kids who are LGBTQ.
